Well, I've finally managed to finish up a few of my voicepacks, and couldn't wait till I'd finished the rest to release them
First, some important information:
All three of these voices use a custom species class to provide access to custom pain and death sounds. Therefore, they will NOT work online in their default state. To counter Epic's stupid handling of species classes, I've added an additional entry to each of the character .upl files that uses a default species so that the voices can be used online if you wish. To do so, simply open the .upl file for the character and add a semi-colon ( ; ) to the beginning of the first entry, and remove it from the second entry. You can now select the netplay friendly version in the player settings menu as usual. If you don't play online, or simply don't want to use the characters online, then you can use the characters as they are without modification.
Alternatively, if you want to use a completely different character with the voicepacks, you can simply select the custom voice of your choice in the player settings menu - the custom species will be ignored and the default species will be used instead.
Ok, that's that out of the way To install the characters, simply extract the files from each zip (using folder names) directly to your UT2004 directory. If for some reason this doesn't work, place the files as follows:
.u - System
.int - System
.upl - System
.uax - Sounds
.utx - Textures
Firstly, we have my favourite character from more or less any film I've seen: Ash from Evil Dead 3 - Army of Darkness:
Download Ash Voice Pack (5mb)
Voicepack has 47 Taunts, 5 custom pain sounds and 8 custom (and extremely funny ) death sounds. All orders and other commands are taken care of by the default Merc Male voice. If you like comedy voice packs, download this now!
Next we have another comedy voice pack in the shape of a merc male with a very robust sense of humour ("Ooooh! That's gonna leave a mark!".......):
Download Comedy Merc Voicepack (3mb)
Voicepack has 48 Taunts, 4 custom pain sounds and uses the default mercmale death sounds. Almost all commands and other orders are custom, with a few minor exceptions. He also has custom Friendly Fire sounds.
And lastly for the moment, we have a voice pack using the unreal 2 marine sounds as a base:
Download Unreal 2 Marine Voice Pack (3mb)
Again, voicepack has 48 taunts, 8 custom pain sounds and 8 custom death sounds, 6 custom friendly fires sounds, and uses the default mercmale for other commands and sounds.
To play as the characters I've created to go with these voice packs, just choose them in the player settings menu (you can filter the selection down to just the voicepack characters using the Filter dropdown box). They can also be added as bots in the usual way. Or as I said above, you can use a different character and simply choose my voicepacks from the menu (but you won't get the kickass pain and death sounds like that )
That's your lot for the time being, hope you enjoy them as much as I do
